Ratchet & Clank Comic Coming

If you’re a fan of the PlayStation brand’s most popular space-faring duo then you’re probably a little bit sad that there won’t be a Ratchet and Clank game this year. The pair are set to make an appearance in Sony’s motion-controlled crossover title Heroes on the Move but that might stretch into 2011.

So up steps DC Comics imprint Wild Storm with news to warm your heart. They’re printing (and making available on the excellent Digital Comics service for PSP) a comic book following the exploits of everyone’s favourite long-eared, jaundiced, racoon-looking thing (I know he’s a Lombax, don’t attack me).

The comic book will be written by Insomniac’s TJ Fixman and follow on after the events of A Crack in Time. The art is being done by Adam Archer with covers by CreatureBox (Insomniac artists David Guertin and Greg Baldwin). Release date for the printed book is fixed for September 8th in North America, most of Europe, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. Digital copy is slightly more ambiguously dated for “this Fall”.
